174 175</center> 176 <br /> <br /> 177 <p><b><u>Grizzly Bear</u></b> (scientific name: Ursus arctos horribilis), sometimes called the Silvertip Bear, 178 is a subspecies of the brown bear living in North America. 179 </p> 180 <H2><u>Grizzly Bear Habitat</u></H2> 181 <p> 182Roaming the North American continent for the past million years, the grizzly bear has managed to outlive both 183the saber-toothed tiger and the mastodon. 184<br /> 185As major targets of human hunters, however, the tens of thousands of grizzlies 186that once inhabited the Great Plains and the Rockies and Sierras of the American West have been reduced to a fraction of 187their former numbers. 188<br /><br /> 189Today, most grizzlies live in Alaska and Canada. Probably fewer than a thousand remain in the 48 190contiguous states, and those bears are found almost exclusively in some 10 million acres of Idaho, Montana and Wyoming. 191 </p> 192 193<H2><u>Grizzly Bear Information & Characteristic</u></H2> 194 <p> 195 The term "grizzly" refers to the white-tipped hairs that give it a frosty grizzled appearance, 196 particularly those of the Rocky Mountains, and colors can range from a grayish color through yellow-brown 197 to a dark-brown or nearly black coloration. The color depends largely on the grizzly bear habitat and also on 198 the indigenous climate. 199 <br /><br /> 200 The size of grizzly bears decreases generally from the north to the south, ranging from 201 up to 680 kilograms in the north to 80 to 200 kilograms in the south of the country. 202<br /><br /> 203<center> 204 205 206<ins class="adsbygoogle" 207 style="display:block; text-align:center;" 208 data-ad-layout="in-article" 209 data-ad-format="fluid" 210 data-ad-client="ca-pub-7304917892182792" 211 data-ad-slot="5057606709"></ins>

214 215</center> 216<br /><br /> 217 The grizzly bear male is on average 1.8 times heavier than the female. 218 Despite its massive figure he can run with a speed of over 60 km/h. The forelegs and the shoulders 219 of the grizzly are particularly massive and powerful, enabling him to dig and to climb. 220Grizzly bears climb trees to find honey and are accomplished swimmers. 221<br /><br /> 222They use their claws and powerful jaws to fight, 223catch their food and to mark their territory on the trunks of trees. A grizzly's sense of smell is well developed, 224and its life expectancy is around 30 years. 225 <br /><br /> 226 The grizzly bear accumulates 200 kg of fat in order to survive the harsh winters of its habitat 227 in a state of lethargy which is not, however, a real hibernation. The grizzly bear is omnivorous, 228 eating anything from fish, honey and ants to beached whales. They also feed on dead game and other carrion. 229 On rare occasions they kill elk and dig out ground squirrels and foxes. 230 <br /> <br /> 231 Nevertheless, 90% of its diet is vegetarian. The grizzly bear is normally a solitary animal buts 232 gets together with other bears along the banks of fast-flowing streams and rivers during the salmon 233 breeding period when the fish are going upriver to spawn. 234 <br /> <br /> 235 <img src="images/Ursus_arctos_horribilis.gif" width="278" height="129" align="center"> 236 <br /> 237 <br /> 238 239 </p><H2><u>Grizzly Bear Cubs</u></H2> 240 <p>Grizzlies usually mate sometime between May and July. 241 <br /> 242 Grizzly bear males are thought to find females by smell, relying on olfactory clues such 243 as those left on rubbing posts. They often actively travel at this time of year, sniffing the 244 ground and the breeze for the scent of a potential mate. Sometimes they get so engrossed in their 245 search that they neglect to eat for hours at a stretch. 246<br /><br /> 247 The grizzly bear females do not become pregnant immediately because bears have developed 248 a procedure called delayed implantation, which mean that the fertilized egg floats in the female's 249 womb for several months until conditions for developing the fetus are right. If she is well fed, it 250 will settle into the uterine wall and develop while she is hibernating. If the female fails to get enough 251 to eat during the summer, the egg will die. 252<br /><br /> 253The cubs are born in midwinter and the number depends in part on the local food supply. Twins are usually the most common result. 254At birth, the grizzly is blind and toothless and weights about 500 grams. They are so small that newborn would easily fit 255into cupped hands, although they grow fast and are robust and playful by the time warm weather arrives. 256</p> 257 <div align="center" class="rating"> 258<div xmlns:v="http://rdf.data-vocabulary.org/#" typeof="v:Review-aggregate" id="listing"><div class="rated_text"><span property="v:itemreviewed">Grizzly Bears<br />rated with </span> <span rel="v:rating"><span typeof="v:Rating"><span id="outOfFive_13" class="out5Class" title="4.02" content="4.02"><span property="v:average">4.02</span></span> out of <span property="v:best">5</span></span> (<span id="percentage_13" class="percentClass"><span property="v:count">80.37%</span></span>) (<span id="showvotes_13" class="votesClass"><span property="v:votes">271 Votes</span></span>)</div> 259 <ul class="star-rating" id="rater_13"> 260 <li class="current-rating" style="width:80.37%;" id="ul_13"></li> 261 <li><a onclick="rate('1','13',true,true,true); return false;" href="includes/rating_process.php?id=13&rating=1" rel="nofollow" title="1 star out of 5" class="one-star" >1</a></li> 262 <li><a onclick="rate('2','13',true,true,true); return false;" href="includes/rating_process.php?id=13&rating=2" rel="nofollow" title="2 stars out of 5" class="two-stars">2</a></li> 263 <li><a onclick="rate('3','13',true,true,true); return false;" href="includes/rating_process.php?id=13&rating=3" rel="nofollow" title="3 stars out of 5" class="three-stars">3</a></li> 264 <li><a onclick="rate('4','13',true,true,true); return false;" href="includes/rating_process.php?id=13&rating=4" rel="nofollow" title="4 stars out of 5" class="four-stars">4</a></li> 265 <li><a onclick="rate('5','13',true,true,true); return false;" href="includes/rating_process.php?id=13&rating=5" rel="nofollow" title="5 stars out of 5" class="five-stars">5</a></li> 266 </ul> 267 <div id="loading_13"></div></div></div> 268 </td> 269 </tr> 270 </table> 271 <br> 272 </td> 273 <td width="11" align="center" valign="top"><br> 274 <table width="11" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" background="images/line.gif" height="100%"> 275 <tr> 276 <td><img src="images/spacer.gif" width="11" height="100"></td> 277 </tr> 278 </table> 279 280 </td> 281 <td align="center" valign="top"> 282 283 <table width="205" border="0" cellpadding="1" cellspacing="0"> 284 <tr> 285 <td align="center"> 286 </td> 287</tr> 288 </table> 289 <table width="205" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="text"> 290 <tr> 291 <td height="0" colspan="2"><img src="images/line2.gif" width="204" height="5" hspace="0" vspace="5"></td> 292 </tr> 293 <tr> 294 <td colspan="2"> 295 <b>Grizzly Bear Attack</b><br /> 296 The grizzly bear (pictures below) has discovered the carcass of a mule deer and defends its prize from a 297 quartet of timber wolves. 298 <br /><br /> 299 As the grizzly bear moves between the wolves and the carrion the wolves backtrack quickly 300 and then close in warily as the bear retreats behind the carrion. 301 <br /><br /> 302 <img src="images/grizzly_bear_attack.gif" alt="" width="200" height="87"> 303 <br /> 304 <img src="images/grizzly_wolf_attack.gif" alt="" width="200" height="124"> 305 <br /> 306 Persisting in their attempt to drive off the grizzly, the wolves circle beyond reach of the bear's lethal claws. 307 Where their ranges overlap, grizzlies and wolves can coexist in generally peaceful terms. 308 <br /><br /> 309 One naturalist observed a 310 grizzly bear and a wolf feeding side by side on a caribou carcass, although a grizzly that decides to take over a wolf 311 kill is almost always successful.
